The FAA's summary their words, unchanged
These special conditions are issued pursuant to §§ 21.16 and 21.101 of the Federal Aviation Regulations (FAR) to Fokker B.V., the Netherlands, for an amended type certificate (TCA-817) for the F27 MK050 airplane. The F27 MK050 airplane will have novel or unusual design features associated with an automatic takeoff power control system (ATPCS) for which the applicable airworthiness regulations do not contain adequate or appropriate safety standards. The ATPCS will allow the airplane to take off with less than maximum takeoff thrust approved for the airplane; and, if an engine fails, the system will automatically provide maximum takeoff thrust on the operating engine. These special conditions contain safety standards which the Administrator finds necessary to establish a level of safety equivalent to that provided by the regulations applicable to the F27 MK050 airplane because of the novel or unusual features.
